Defining Descriptive Elements
You can define any number of descriptive elements for an item catalog group. You can also describe whether the descriptive element is required at item definition, and whether the descriptive element value is included by default in the item catalog description.
Descriptive element values can be concatenated and used to create an item's description. You turn this feature off or on for each descriptive element in a catalog group. Turn Description Default on for any element you want included in a concatenated description. You create a concatenated description when assign an item to an item catalog group. See: Assigning Items to Catalogs.
To define descriptive elements for an item catalog group:
3. Select the Descriptive Elements alternative region.
When you assign an item to a group, the descriptive elements are presented in the order you define here.
5. Enter the name of a new descriptive element.
Examples: Color, height, texture.
6. Determine whether the descriptive element is required for this catalog group.
When you assign an item to a catalog group, you must enter a value for required descriptive elements in order for the catalog to be considered complete. If an element is not required, entering a value is optional.
7. Determine whether the descriptive element is automatically used to create the catalog description (Description Default).
If you choose to concatenate the value of the descriptive element to create the catalog description, you can use this description to overwrite an existing item description.
